The Beetle Syndrome
The 55th International Art Exhibition, LA BIENNALE DE VENEZIA
the officiana delle Zattere : The metamorphoses of the virtual 100 years of art and freedom Pia MYrvoLD
What is inside is outside.
Transformation is in slow motion.
An artist is like a beetle, looking in society's faeces for the
food he needs to produce works, which fascinate or upset his
peers. The artist feeds on the world's excrements, and from this
abject food he manages, sometimes, to bring out beauty.

ce qui est à l'intérieur est à l'extérieur. La transformation est un mouvement lent.Un artiste est un scarabée qui trouve dans les rebuts de la société les aliments nécessaires à produire des œuvres, qui fascinent et bouleversent ses semblables. L’artiste, tel un scarabée, se nourrit de la merde du monde dans lequel il œuvre, et de cette nourriture abjecte il parvient parfois à faire jaillir la beauté.
The human spirit feeds off the world’s shit …. it ingests and digests never-ending streams of permanent, polymorphous and invasive images. Pain, hatred, beauty, emotion, horror, stupidity, knowledge,power …. An accumulation of portrayals, networks, individualities, references without anchors which invade, pollute and transfigure it.
What mutant forms covers this being in the light...
L’esprit humain se nourrit de la merde du monde... il ingère et digère des flots d’images incessantes, permanentes, de natures polymorphes et invasives.La douleur, la haine, la beauté, l’émotion, l’horreur,la bêtise, le savoir, le pouvoir...
Une accumulation de représentations, de réseaux, d’individualités, de références sans repères l’envahissent, le polluent, le transfigurent...
Quelle forme mutante revêt cet être à la lumière...

DESTRUCTIBILITY++
Ausland performance, 20 June 2010
Jean-Gérald Dorseuil was invited with Olivier Heinry to Berlin's Territory for Experimental Music, Performance and Art in 2010 for their "Destructibility ++" performance, based on the philosophy of Walter Benjamin ”The Work of Art in the Age of Technical Mechanical Reproduction”.
Olivier Heinry
Born 1974 in Quimper, France.
Graduated 2000 from Rennes fine arts school. After early performances with the Ex-TV &PlugAnd.play collectives, started working for the stage with Bruno Pocheron and have since been mainly working as a sound and video designer with French & German choreographers (Isabelle Schad/Good Work Productions, Amaraoui/Burner, David Rolland, Blanca Li) and theater directors (Judith Depaule, Thierry Bédard). Involved in the free software / network / hack-a-dub scene with the Servideo & Crealab collectives. Also performing under the Gary Glitcher pseudo, ang giving workshops on such topics as interactive art, free software & mixed media, as well as Linux & Puredata. Beware of his homonym!
About the project Destructibility ++
Olivier Heinry started building a performance upon the rise and fall of another mass consumption commodity called the Compact Disc, and one of the first recordings released, the Alpine Symphony.
In the spring of 2010, they decided to merge these two processes built upon the remains of art works’ aura into a single one. It starts with a man sitting, reels and reels of tape slowly unwinding themselves and swallowing him. The rest of the space I start in an empty space gets physically cluttered with Philips CD players,, vintage stereo systems, lots of wires and filled acoustically with prepared CDs, remixing the original work through random cutups, stutters and glitches. It then switches to a computer-driven realtime composition of the glitches, and the other man raising back from the reels…
The unusual use of household objects then leads to an organic half-improvised composition.
